A nutritionist told my daughter in law to try taking Juven, which is meant to help wound healing. She doesn’t have a wound, but is a bit run down and skinny from hauling around two babies and still nursing one. Her friend says they give it to everyone post surgery where she works.
Anyway, my husband is healing from hip surgery, so will try using it too.
Sorry I have no experience with it gentle, but from all I've read about it, it is clinically proven. As long as you/she can afford it, why not give it a try? It couldn't hurt. I've read the ingredients panel and it sounds as though it would definitely do some good.

Everything you put in your body has the potential to harm your body.
There are interactions with other medications and foods.
Consult your pharmacist or physician before taking or changing any medications or medical food supplements.
It's a nutritional supplement for people with low nutrition stores to help support healing after a surgery or trauma, or muscle wasting due to aids or cancer. It's to be used in addition to a complete, balanced diet. If you don't have low nutrition stores, you don't need it. If your doctor writes a prescription for it, your insurance might cover part or all of it. It's from the company that makes Ensure.

It gets very good reviews online.
My wife has had two major surgeries for cancer, and I had surgery on my tongue for cancer. A family friend works for Abbott Labs and sent cases of Juven and Ensure after all three surgeries. My wife didn't care for the products so I drank most of them. I had no problem with any of them especially when after my tongue surgery, I couldn't eat sold food.
Whether the ingredients of Juven actually help with would healing is difficult to prove. Looking at the ingredients, Juven has collagen and several amino acids such as arginine and glutamine, and a supplement called HMB, which is intended to promote wound healing and provide nutritional support for people with muscle wasting due to cancer, etc.
My bottom line is it is too expensive for the benefit. Amazon is quoting $121.36 for a box of 30 packets. You could buy separate supplements of collagen, HMB, protein powder, and a multivitamin for much less than that.

Thank you for that information. It doesn’t really sound like hubby needs it at this point. At least not for $200 a month.
